Press Releases

CHICAGO, Aug. 27, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO), the leading global provider of broadband connectivity products and services for aviation, today announced the completion of its previously disclosed $30 million asset-based revolving credit facility.  

"The closing of our $30 million revolving credit facility provides additional buffer capital and represents another important step in the strengthening of our balance sheet and liquidity without equity dilution," said Oakleigh Thorne, President and CEO of Gogo. "We continue to expect Free Cash Flow improvement of at least $100 million in 2019 versus 2018 and meaningfully positive annual Free Cash Flow in 2021."

Following the closing of this credit facility, the Company expects to maintain a minimum total liquidity balance of approximately $100 million. The Company does not anticipate requiring additional capital based on its current plans and projected cash flow trajectory, except as needed to refinance its debt obligations maturing in 2022 and 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes a discussion of Free Cash Flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses Free Cash Flow for business planning purposes, including managing our business against internally projected results of operations and measuring our performance and liquidity. This supplemental performance measure also provides another basis for comparing period to period results by excluding potential differences caused by non-operational and unusual or non-recurring items. This supplemental performance measurement may vary from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Free Cash Flow is not a recognized measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP; when analyzing our liquidity, investors should (i) evaluate each adjustment in our reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure, and the explanatory footnotes regarding those adjustments and (ii) use Free Cash Flow in addition to, and not as an alternative to, consolidated net cash provided by (used in) operating activities when evaluating our liquidity. No reconciliation of the forecasted range for Free Cash Flow for fiscal 2019 is included in this release because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the corresponding GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts and we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.
